The name game

Mummies, did you have a name that you always loved that you knew would be your child's name, or did it require hours of thinking? Just how much did you care about what other people thought?

We have two boys names in the running, one of which has been our boys name forever. Without question if he is in fact a he, we know his name. Martins wants to keep the name quiet, I don't know why, we like more traditional names so it's not because we're going to name him after a fashion brand or type of food!

Girls names are another matter - we have never had a girls name picked out and we both tend to like unisex names for girls. The one girls name we both love, although unisex, is more male-associated in the UK than girl. Would this put you off using it?

  1. It wouldnt put me off at all. We have a unisex name that we will use: Robin for a boy and Robyn for a girl. Perhaps you could change the spelling slightly to make it easier to identify?

    Love the change to your blog and description xx

  2. Pick what names you like, but have several options. You may change your mind when people have input about your name choice. Or you change your mind altogether when it comes to the middle name...if u have a middle name that is non-negotiable.
